Closeness: an act of love

As I walk down the narrow lane

Trying to save myself from all the crowd,

Smell and touches undesired,

I feel a breath on my neck.

Yet, for the first time in the narrow lane,

Did I like to have someone so near me.

There is that one whose closeness

Makes me survive anything, anywhere;

Yes, survive even in the narrow lane.

(Dedicated to the one who makes my life worth living)
